Circle of Friends students visited the Library for the first time! We heard Curious George Visits the Library by Margaret and H.A. Reys during story time and we checked out our first book to take home and read with our families. Read another Curious George story with your child this week to continue the fun and joy of reading. Suggestions: Curious George Visits the Zoo, Curious George Goes to School, and Curious George Learns the Alphabet. See the following website for more information about Curious George books, games, puzzles, and activities: Curious George: Celebrate Reading with Curious George!

This week, Circle of Friends visited the Library Resource Center to hear ABC: I Like Me by Nancy Carlson. Alphabet books introduce and reinforce the visual identification of letters as well as the sounds that letters of the alphabet make. Alphabet books also introduce new vocabulary, new concepts, and can be just plain fun! Read another alphabet book with your child this week to continue the sights, sounds, and fun of the alphabet. Suggestions: Shiver Me Letters: a Pirate ABC by June Sobel and illustrated by Henry Cole; try also, Eating the Alphabet: Fruits and Vegetables from A to Z by Lois Ehlert.
September 21 and 22
This week Circle of Friends students heard Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr. and illustrated by Eric Carle. We chanted the words of the book together and held up colorful animal pictures when it was our turn during the story. We had a great time!
September 28 and 29
